About Salt Lake Stadium
Serves the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan — one of India's largest football stadiums with a capacity of 85,000.
Salt Lake Stadium serves the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan, the hundred-thousand-capacity ground that hosts the Kolkata derby and has staged World Cup football. It opened on 14 February 2020 with the Green Line's first section and is elevated. On match nights the station handles a crowd that arrives and leaves in two sharp waves, which is a different problem from the steady commuter flow of the rest of the line.
